Risk calculation: infection

Usage

calc_infection_risk(
  inflow_orgPerLitre = 10,
  treatment_logRemoval = 5.8,
  exposure_daysPerYear = 365,
  doseresponse_modelType = "dr.expo",
  waterConsumption_LitrePerDay = 1,
  target_infectionRisk_perYear = 1/10000,
  ...
)

Arguments

inflow_orgPerLitre

concentration of microbiological parameter in inflow to water treatment plant (default: 10 Org/L)

treatment_logRemoval

reduction of microbiological concentration in water treatment plant (default: 5.8 log)

exposure_daysPerYear

exposure days per year (default: 365)

doseresponse_modelType

dose response model to be used: "dr.expo" for exponential or "dr.betapoisson" for beta-poisson model

waterConsumption_LitrePerDay

daily water consumption (default: 1 L/day)

target_infectionRisk_perYear

NOT IMPLEMENTED YET!!!! target infection risk per per year. Only used if one of the following input parameters (i.e. "inflow_orgPerLitre", "treatment_logRemoval", "exposure_daysPerYear", "waterConsumption_LitrePerDay") is not defined (default: 1/10000).

...

additional parameters used for dose response modelling. Depends on used dose-response model

Value

list with input parameters and calculated infection risk
